Solve 53/3+29/7=

$$5 \frac { 3 } { 3 } + 2 \frac { 9 } { 7 } =$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{65}{7}\approx 9.285714286$$

Solution Steps

Multiply 5 and 3 to get 15.

$$\frac{15+3}{3}+\frac{2\times 7+9}{7}$$

Add 15 and 3 to get 18.

$$\frac{18}{3}+\frac{2\times 7+9}{7}$$

Divide 18 by 3 to get 6.

$$6+\frac{2\times 7+9}{7}$$

Multiply 2 and 7 to get 14.

$$6+\frac{14+9}{7}$$

Add 14 and 9 to get 23.

$$6+\frac{23}{7}$$

Convert 6 to fraction \frac{42}{7}.

$$\frac{42}{7}+\frac{23}{7}$$

Since \frac{42}{7} and \frac{23}{7} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{42+23}{7}$$

Add 42 and 23 to get 65.

$$\frac{65}{7}$$

Factor

$$\frac{5 \cdot 13}{7} = 9\frac{2}{7} = 9.285714285714286$$
